Summary

Do you know what happens to a caterpillar inside its cocoon? It disintegrates into a gooey mass before its cells reform into a butterfly. Martha calls this state "bug soup." It's not pretty, but it's an essential part of change—including our own! In this episode of BEWILDERED®, Martha and Ro talk about how to allow yourself to dissolve, even though the culture teaches us to resist it like crazy. If you've been struggling with change and the process of letting go, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

0:00.0	Welcome to bewildered. I'm Martha Beck here with Rowan Mangan. At this crazy moment in history,
0:09.2	a lot of people are feeling bewildered, but that actually may be a sign we're on track.
0:14.4	Human culture teaches us to come to consensus, but nature, our own true nature, helps us come
0:20.7	to our senses. Rowan and I believe that the best way to figure it all out is by going through
0:26.2	a wilderness into bewildered. That's why we're here. You know what I'm seeing out in the world is
0:33.7	a lot of fear and a growing amount of despair. Maybe you're feeling that way too, because the ways
0:41.7	our culture has taught us to navigate the world, to navigate our lives, they are failing us.
0:48.6	We need a new language. We need a new set of tools to find our way individually and as a group.
0:55.3	And I know we can still do this. I put everything I do know about it into wayfinder life coach training
1:02.1	and the tools that I teach there are to help people redefine how we relate to each other,
1:08.3	how we make a living, how we do community. We can only change the world for the better if we redefine
1:14.7	how we think. Registration is open for the fall and the world needs wayfinders now more than
1:21.8	ever. So please go to MarthaBag.com and you'll find your way.
1:32.4	Hi, I'm Martha Beck. And I'm Rowan Mangan and this is another episode of bewildered the podcast
1:37.5	for people trying to figure it out how you're doing. I'm doing pretty well. It's been a while since
1:43.6	we sat down to do this and it's really fun to be here again. I have to say, but they don't know
1:48.3	that our listeners don't know that because of the magic of something, of I guess like regular
1:55.2	releases, it's we're supposed to deposit them in a special eggery. Yeah, they're like eggeries.
2:01.9	We put your podcast, have the illusion that we do things regularly. But in fact, we don't,
2:09.4	as we, as we very often end up saying on this show, we say it like every time and then we say,
2:14.9	oh, but they don't know because of the magic of whatever, but we're wrong. We're wrong.
2:19.7	And they're right. Anyway, what are you trying to figure out? Well, Marty, as so often,
